Features

Cross docking

Organizations can achieve speed and scalability by directly using in-bound goods to fulfil pending orders without the lengthy cycle of receipt, put-away, storage, pickup and replenishment. The Infor WMS system efficiently captures and intelligently uses order, production and delivery information to eliminate redundancies and activity creeps with an aim of delivering maximum value to end users.

Adaptable across storage types

You can now have a system that understands the different types of storage such as multi-rack, open, temperature controlled and carousel that you have in your warehouse. Additionally, when different movement mechanisms such as FIFO, LIFO and Bulk are used based on product types, you can use the Infor WMS as a single system that is flexible to handle various combinations of your warehouse configurations.

Order grouping

When you have multiple orders to fulfil, you can group them together so as to optimize resource and shop floor utilization. The Infor WMS automatically schedules productive activities based on workloads and available materials for achieving better delivery commitments and good maintenance of the organization's equipments and assets.

Support for diverse picking methods

A large enterprise usually has multiple picking methods based on their diverse product needs and the capabilities of their numerous warehouses. The INFOR WMS supports Radio Frequency (RF), Labelling, Clustering, Listing, Batch and Voice Pick Up methods so that orders can be fulfilled in the most productive and efficient ways.

Flexible packaging

Built-in personalization techniques aid the system users to package goods based on the unique preferences of each customer. Different types of containers, sizes, pallets, dimensions and weights are recorded in the Infor WMS system so that the final shipped package is reflected as-is in the system.

Benefits

Reduced inventory carrying costs

Multi-location, multi-function organizations have witnessed a significant reduction in inventory levels and inventory carrying costs as a result of successful Infor WMS implementations. A bloated inventory leads to a domino effect in terms of costs bloating further down the production cycle - hence resolving the root cause of the issue helps in predicting and preventing excess damage and ensures the financial well being of the organization.

Optimal space utilization

With features such as cross docking, variable weight management, serial number, lot and expiration date tracking, this is one of the best products in the market today that optimizes space management for modern, inventory sensitive organizations. Real estate being one of the most expensive indicators on a company's balance sheet, streamlining warehouse utilization can have a significant positive effect on stabilizing a large organization's operational costs.

Shorter cash conversion cycle

One of the most important benefits that organizations can take advantage of with the Infor WMS is a productive and short cash to convert cycle. Since the entire concept is based on reducing inventory storage, improved cash flow is a benefit that is automatically gained with this automated, web based, real time system.

Accurate KPI measurements

The Infor WMS System comes with out-of-the box KPI tracking solutions that enable key decision makers to take accurate, real-time business decisions. Some of the critical measurements included are related to outstanding amounts, in-depth inventory analysis, cycle counts and region wise work results.

Activity based charges

Third party warehouses can benefit greatly by computing costs based on actual events that take place during the supply chain life cycle. Businesses that have in-house operations can also optimize profit margins by using detailed level expense and income management techniques that are fine-tuned to the workings of large industrial houses.
